Julie:My name's Julie Dearden, and I'm the Director of International Programmes here at Hertford College.
Eugene:My name's Eugene Berger, I studied here in Oxford for four years er, studying modern languages at Somerville College.
Julie:Oh, there are many Oxford traditions. Oxford is a very old university, the oldest English speaking university in the, in the world. And so there are
many traditions which are associated with the colleges, with the times of the
year, and with sport, and with eating, for example.
Eugene:Each college is very different um, from um, the others, and it has its own character. Some colleges are very conrvative, and some are much moretragedy
liberal and have a tradition of um, kind of liberal politics. But there are also
some specific traditions.
Julie:F ormal Hall is when we all eat together here in college, the professors and the students. Usually it takes places at ven o'clock in the evening, and the
professors sit on high table which is the table over here, and the students sit
on common table, which are the tables here. But everybody eats together.
It's a very beautiful evening becau there are, there's a special meal and
四六级分数线we eat by candlelight.
Eugene:I think er, the traditions that make Oxford so unique are firstly the Oxford Union and er, condly, May Day. The Oxford Union being a debating
society where speakers come from all around the world to address the
students and even allow themlves to be questioned by the students,
making it a very interesting forum.
Julie:My favourite is er, May Day. And May Day is the first day of May, and we have a tradition called May Morning, and on May Morning everybody gets
up very early and the students have a celebration. There is a choir which
yielding
sings on top of the tower at Magdalen College and all the people of the town
怎样画生活妆and all the students go to listen to the singing. So it‘s very nice.
Eugene:The tradition that er, was most important to me was probably Summer Eights. I was a rower. And Summer Eights is a rowing competition, held in
May in the summer term. And in this competition, each college is trying to
improve its place which it won the previous year and gradually work its way
up the river.
Julie:W hen the students take exams, they must go to a special building and it's called Examination Schools. And also they must wear a special uniform, so
they wear a gown like mine, a black gown, and they wear a white shirt, and
the men wear a white tie and black trours. The women wear a white shirt
and a black skirt or black trours. And they must wear this uniform, which
has a Latin name – sub fusc – and they must wear this uniform in order to
take their examinations.
Eugene:I think the Oxford traditions lend character to the place and it's such an old institution, it should have traditions, but they can be very inconvenient. For
example, sub fusc. This is the uniform that we are required according to the
university rules, to wear.
Julie:They also wear flowers in their buttonholes, and tho flowers are
carnations. And they wear different colours, the students wear differentafternoontea
coloured flowers for different examinations. So when you take your first
exam you wear a white flower, and when you take your cond exam you
wear a pink flower, and when you take your final examination you wear a red
carnation.
Eugene:So we have to dress up in a full black suit, starched collar, white bow tie and carry a mortarboard. And to write an exam in the summer heat whilst
wearing all that which you're not allowed to take off is um, uncomfortable. Julie:I really like the Oxford traditions, I think it's part of our history, and part of um, being a student or a teacher here at Oxford University.
